! Do not use the following:
R E85 (petrol with 85% ethanol)
R E100 (100% ethanol)
R M15 (petrol with 15% methanol)
R M30 (petrol with 30% methanol)
R M85 (petrol with 85% methanol)
R M100 (100% methanol)
R petrol with additives containing metal
R diesel
Do not mix such fuels with the fuel recom-
mended for your vehicle.
You will usually find information about the fuel
quality on the pump. If you cannot find the label on the petrol pump, ask the filling station staff.
GLC 250 4MATIC Coupé: as a temporary meas-
ure, if the recommended fuel is not available,
you may also use regular unleaded petrol with
an octane rating of 93 RON.
All other models: as a temporary measure, if
the recommended fuel is not available, you may
also use regular unleaded petrol with an octane rating of 91 RON. This may reduce engine per-
formance and increase fuel consumption. Avoiddriving at full throttle and sudden acceleration.
Never refuel using fuel with a lower RON.
i In some countries, the petrol available may
not be sufficiently low in sulphur. This fuel can temporarily produce unpleasant odours,
especially on short journeys. As soon as sul-
phur-free fuel (sulphur content < 10 ppm) is
used for refuelling, the odours are reduced.
Information on refuelling (Y page 162).
GLC 300 4MATIC Coupé, Mercedes-AMG
GLC 43 4MATIC Coupé
! Only refuel using super unleaded petrol with
at least 98 ROZ, if you want maximum per-
formance from the engine. Alternatively, you
can also use unleaded petrol of at least
95 ROZ.
As a temporary measure, if the recommended
fuel is not available, you may also use regular unleaded petrol with an octane rating of
91 ROZ. Doing so results in higher fuel con-
sumption and significantly reduced perform-
ance. Never refuel using fuel with a lower
RON. Fuel of this specification may contain up to
10% ethanol.
Fuel that does not conform to EN 228 or E DIN
51626–1 can lead to increased wear as well
as damage to the engine and exhaust system.
Additives ! Operating the engine with fuel additives
added later can lead to engine failure. Do not mix fuel additives with fuel. This does not
include additives for the removal and preven-
tion of residue build-up. Petrol must only be
mixed with additives recommended by
Mercedes-Benz. Observe the instructions for
use in the product description. More informa- tion about recommended additives can be
obtained from any Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use fuel
brands containing additives.
The quality of the fuel available in some coun-
tries may not be sufficient. Residue could build
up in the fuel injection system as a result. In this
case, in consultation with a Mercedes-Benz Ser- vice Centre, the petrol may be mixed with the
cleaning additive recommended by Mercedes-
Benz. Always observe the notes and mixing
ratios specified on the container.
Diesel Fuel grade
G
WARNING
If you mix diesel fuel with petrol, the flash
point of this fuel mixture is lower than that of pure diesel fuel. When the engine is running,
components in the exhaust system may over-
heat unnoticed. There is a risk of fire.
Never refuel with petrol. Never add petrol to
diesel fuel.
! When refuelling, only use diesel fuel that
conforms to the European standard EN 590 or is of equivalent quality. Fuel that does not
conform to EN 590 can lead to increased wear
as well as damage to the engine and exhaust system.
! Do not use the following:
R marine diesel
R heating oil Service products and capacities
375Technical data Z

R
bio-diesel
R vegetable oil
R petrol
R paraffin
R kerosene
Do not mix such fuels with diesel fuel and do
not use any special additives. Otherwise,
engine damage may occur.
! In countries outside the EU, only use low-
sulphur Euro diesel with a sulphur content of
under 50 ppm. Otherwise, the emission con-
trol system could be damaged.
Usually you will find information about the fuel
grade on the pump. If you cannot find the label
on the petrol pump, ask the filling station staff.
Information on refuelling (Y page 162).
Low outside temperatures In winter months, diesel fuel with an improved
cold flow quality is available. In Europe, the
EN 590 standard defines various climate-
dependent temperature categories. Malfunc-
tions can be avoided by refuelling with diesel
fuel that corresponds to the climatic specifica-
tions outlined in EN 590. At unusually low out-
side temperatures, it is possible that the flow
characteristics of the diesel fuel could be insuf- ficient. Accordingly, diesel fuel from warmer
areas may not be suitable for operation in colderclimatic conditions.
i Further information on country-specific fuel
properties and fuel types with low-tempera-
ture resistance can be obtained from oil com- panies, e.g. at filling stations. AdBlue
®
Important safety notes Comply with the important safety notes for ser-
vice products when handling AdBlue ®
(Y page 373).
AdBlue ®
is a water-soluble fluid for the exhaust
gas aftertreatment of diesel engines. It is:
R non-toxic
R colourless and odourless
R non-flammable
If you open the AdBlue ®
tank, small amounts of
ammonia vapour may be released. Ammonia vapours have a pungent odour and are
particularly irritating to the skin, mucous mem-
branes and eyes. You may experience a burning sensation in your eyes, nose and throat. You
may also experience coughing and watery eyes.
Do not inhale any ammonia vapours that may be
released. Fill the AdBlue ®
tank only in well-ven-
tilated areas.
Low outside temperatures AdBlue
®
freezes at a temperature of approx-
imately -11 †. The vehicle is delivered from the
factory equipped with an AdBlue ®
preheating
system. Winter operation can thus be guaran-
teed even at temperatures below -11 †.
Additives !
Only use AdBlue ®
in accordance with ISO
22241. Do not use additives with AdBlue ®
and do not dilute AdBlue ®
with water. This
may destroy the BlueTEC exhaust gas after-
treatment system.
Purity !
Impurities in AdBlue ®
(e.g. due to other ser-
vice products, cleaning agents or dust) lead
to:
R increased emission values
R damage to the catalytic converter
R engine damage
R malfunctions in the BlueTEC ®
exhaust gas
aftertreatment system
Assuring the purity of AdBlue ®
is particularly
important with regard to avoiding malfunctions
in the BlueTEC exhaust gas aftertreatment sys-
tem.
If AdBlue ®
is pumped out of the AdBlue ®
tank,
e.g. during repair work, do not use this fluid to
refill the tank. The purity of the fluid can no lon-
ger be guaranteed.

Engine oil
General notes When handling engine oil, observe the important
safety notes on service products (Y page 373).
The quality of the engine oil is decisive for the
function and service life of an engine. After
extensive tests, Mercedes-Benz approves
engine oils that correspond to the current tech-
nical standard.
Therefore, only Mercedes-Benz-approved
engine oils may be used in Mercedes-Benz
engines.
Further information on tested and approved
engine oils can be obtained from any Mercedes-
Benz Service Centre. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you have the oil change carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop. Mercedes-
Benz approval is indicated on the oil container
by the inscription "MB-Freigabe" or "MB-
Approval" and the corresponding designation,
e.g. MB-Freigabe or MB-Approval 229.51.
You can call up an overview of approved engine oils on the internet at
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com by entering
the designation, e.g. 229.5.
The table shows which engine oils have been
approved for your vehicle.
Petrol engines: for certain countries, different
engine oils can be used, provided that the main-
tenance intervals are reduced. For more infor-
mation, please contact a qualified specialist
workshop. Petrol engines MB-Freigabe or

pockets may form when the brakes are sub-
jected to a heavy load. This would impair brak-
ing efficiency. There is a risk of an accident.
Have the brake fluid renewed at the prescri-
bed intervals.
When handling brake fluid, observe the impor-
tant safety notes on service products
(Y page 373).
The brake fluid change intervals can be found in the Service Booklet.
Only use brake fluid approved by Mercedes-
Benz in accordance with MB-Freigabe or MB-
Approval 331.0.
Information about approved brake fluid can be
obtained at any qualified specialist workshop or on the Internet at
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com.
i Have the brake fluid regularly replaced at a
qualified specialist workshop in accordance
with the replacement intervals and the
replacement confirmed in the Service Book-
let. Coolant
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If antifreeze comes into contact with hot com- ponents in the engine compartment, it may
ignite. There is a risk of fire and injury.
Let the engine cool down before you top up
the antifreeze. Make sure that antifreeze is
not spilled next to the filler neck. Thoroughly
clean the antifreeze from components before
starting the engine.
! Only add coolant that has been premixed
with the desired antifreeze protection. You
could otherwise damage the engine.
Further information on coolants can be found in the Mercedes-Benz Specifications for Ser-
vice Products, MB Specifications for Service
Products 310.1, e.g. on the Internet at
http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com. Or contact
a qualified specialist workshop.
! Always use a suitable coolant mixture, even
in countries where high temperatures prevail. Otherwise, the engine cooling system is not
sufficiently protected from corrosion and
overheating.
i Have the coolant regularly replaced at a
qualified specialist workshop and the replace-
ment confirmed in the Service Booklet.
Comply with the important safety notes for ser- vice products when handling coolant
(Y page 373).
The coolant is a mixture of water and anti-
freeze/anti-corrosion additive. It is responsible
for the following:
R anti-corrosion protection
R antifreeze protection
R raising the boiling point
If antifreeze/anti-corrosion additive is present
at the correct concentration, the boiling point of
the coolant during operation will be approx-
imately 130 †.
The antifreeze concentrate/anti-corrosion addi-
tive concentration in the engine cooling system should:
R be at least 50%. This will protect the engine
cooling system against freezing down to
approximately -37 †.
R not exceed 55% (antifreeze protection down
to -45 †). Heat will otherwise not be dissipa-
ted as effectively.
Mercedes-Benz recommends an antifreeze/
anti-corrosion additive concentration in accord-
ance with MB Specifications for Service Prod-
ucts 310.1.
i When the vehicle is first delivered, it is filled
with a coolant mixture that ensures adequate
antifreeze and corrosion protection.
i The coolant is checked at every mainte-
nance interval at a qualified specialist work-
shop. Windscreen washer system
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If windscreen washer concentrate comes into contact with hot components of the engine or
the exhaust system, it can ignite. There is a
risk of fire and injury. 378
